The Budapest Café Orchestra share as many blood cells with the fine folk of Hungary, as the Penguin Café Orchestra share with the web footed fellows of Antarctica.

The BCO evokes vivid images of Tzigane fiddle maestros, Budapest café life and gypsy campfires—plus a few surprises along the way.

Comprising four fabulous players of violins, guitar, accordion, double bass, saz & balalaika the BCO boasts some of the country’s most revered international stars: Eddie Hession is a supreme accordion champion of Great Britain; Chris Garrick is one of Europe’s most celebrated jazz violinists, Adrian Zolotuhin, is a master of strummed strings and veteran bass player Kelly Cantlon has been in the business of laying down low notes for many, many moons.
